2021 GABA sheng pu'erh! tasting notes: peanut shells and tobacco sweetness, slightly drying, not bitter at all. suggestions of stonefruit skins dance around a hint of rockiness at the core of the flavor, and what's more, it makes you want to put your pants on in the morning. this leaf will give you a real clean energy to focus on and motivate you to do whatever you gotta do during the day. we simply love a young sheng

I've got a GABA oolong here, maybe I'll make some of that later this afternoon!
ooh I've had some GABA oolong before that straight up smelled like butter cookies, honestly too desserty for my tastes but it's a crowd pleaser for sure. I should have tried it with milk and honey lol
I've only tried this one once and I think my overall impression was "I goofed it on the brewing" so I'm excited to try again and see what I get next time 😆
I do! It's just enough fuss that I often do not-especially-fancy brews in my little single-serving French press though (because it fills a whole mug I can cradle). Pretty sure I used my gaiwan on the first GABA pass but honestly who knows
yeah I feel that. I have a nice set but I am almost always doing grandpa style brewing when I sip because it's just so easy
